I want to seize the sky

When I was thinking about the sky, my head became a mess and I didn't know what was what.
Everything is the same, or it's empty rather than nothing, what luck is, surrender to nature, cherish your daily life, don't be sensible...

Please tell me in a nutshell what is most important
Is letting go of obsessions the most important thing in grasping the sky?

If so, please tell me how to do that.

Or is something else most important?

Anyway, please tell me what to be aware of for the time being and how to do it.
Thank you for your support.

There doesn't seem to be any dust anywhere

This is Kawaguchi Hidetoshi. This is my humble answer to the question.

As I mentioned a little bit last time, understanding “sky” is not easy, so I want to make steady progress without being impatient.

Yes... Regarding “sky,” I have a humble opinion, but I would like you to take a moment to refer to the following.

“On the 'sky' in the Heart Sutra”
http://blog.goo.ne.jp/hidetoshi-k/e/93cd51b49c2264eb00fcc00a904a3392

“Please tell me simply what is most important”...

There is a way of thinking about “the victory of the middle school,” and if you think about the meaning of “sky” and “good fortune,” for example, there are respective circles, I think that the circles overlap perfectly, and that they overlap as being the same.

If the extension of that circle is misaligned even a little, it will be rejected by the fallitists as if they are recalling something substantial and discussing it.

To put it simply, what is most important would it be that “existence certainly exists, but it is not made up of an entity; it is made up of luck.”

It may also be necessary to think backwards about what it means to be established as an entity and what kind of situation an entity refers to.

By all means, I hope you can also learn from Daishi Nagarjuna (Ryuki)'s “Middle Theory.”

Grab it, I'm not there

I read it.

I understand how you feel, but I can't grasp the sky. The sky isn't a concept, and I really don't have the subject to grasp in the first place...

Obsessing that you want something or resisting if you don't like something is the illusion that something “exists,” and I think the illusion that “I am there” is also born from that desire that you don't like it.

If you divide it into two parts: purpose and method, you will enter a world of thought.
I'm going to do it for... If this is the case, “I,” which is the main body, will always intervene. When that happens, it ends up being done by “me,” and I end up talking about what to do with my thoughts.

So, that's what it means to let go of an obsession,
Does that mean they feel safe with “now, here, me”? I'm not going to look for it anywhere. I'm not running away from here. Then, you can see the totality of the present, the totality of this place, and my wholeness. I think this means the sky is coming into view.

It may be hard to understand, but I think this is an interesting part of Buddhism, or rather religion. I don't think I can understand it based on my view of the world up until now. I feel like things aren't going the way you want...

It's not about understanding that

Don't be misled by emptiness, nothfulness, luck, or words. Buddhism is not something you understand with your head. It is a teaching that I am truly convinced by the fact that it is in fact like this.
Even if you think about the flow of time, the moment you think you've grasped it, you'll know that it's a memory from the past one second ago. The dorayaki I ate yesterday isn't there anywhere anymore. There is probably truth in such commonplace things.

The more I read the book and tried to understand it with my head, the farther it became. Therefore, I use my own body and just live the way I am now, living the way I am. I think you can live by inspecting your eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and body first, and once you're satisfied, you can live just by continuing to change like that, even if you don't try to do anything yourself.

To put it bluntly

First, let's learn about denominations.

Doctors tell people who are too obese to lose weight.
For those who are too thin, they say let's put on a little more weight.
The story of let's lose weight and the story of let's gain weight... they seem to contradict each other, but there is a single core of let's maintain a healthy body shape.

In the same way, Buddha taught Buddhism according to that person and in a way suitable for that person. This is called adjuvant medicine or counterfeiting theory. Denominations were derived from there.
Look, Master Kawaguchi, who has already answered, is ideologically esoteric, so I recommend getting close to the sky through understanding sutras. However, since Munakata Master and Kunimoto Master are Zen Buddhism, it is recommended that you think with your head and move away from the sky. Quite the opposite, right?
Honestly, I don't talk about myself at all. But please tell me about Buddhism... Please understand that this makes it difficult even for monks to do it. I can only answer that monks are like this in my case, and this is the case of my denomination.

What is important, simply? The ideal is to find a mentor that suits you. However, it can be quite difficult when it comes to social life. So it's a good idea to first observe the trends of various denominations through hasunoha.
Denominations are different mountain trails that aim for the top of the same mountain. You don't have to decide on one right away. First, I think it would be good to get to know it shallowly and widely, and if you have a relationship, leave it up to the relationship and narrow it down to one.

If you follow the sky, you will disobey the sky

When I explain it on electric guitars, there is a play method called choking that pulls up a string, but I can't understand that “comfort” no matter how many characters you explain. If you actually experience it with live sound ❝ no questions or answers, no need to say yes or not, without logic ❞! It's something you can understand as ('.d`).
That was the case with me, but I'm trying to rely too much on bad logic to understand the sky.
Let's know that the method was wrong from the beginning, to the extent that when cutting daikon, you tried to cut it with a tissue.
In this question, let's understand that there is another field of how to use a head called “factual brain” rather than “thinking brain.”
There is no thought or analysis in the beginning, 5 seconds before you seriously think.
First, it's a factual brain.
For example, ※Now, children's bread is baked in a toaster and carried on a plate. 👦
However, this was analyzed and explained “later.”
Actually, the scent of ☞ bread is there, and they don't know what bread it is, they don't even try to stick with it, and while the scent is just pungent, nothing more than that is picked up, no unnecessary thoughts occur, and it's just that without being analyzed or judged. (Accepted)
This way of being is always applied to the mind and body. At that time, it will be easy.
This is the actual reality of the sky, where Buddhism has been fulfilled.
[Even so, even if “it” comes over this body, and even if there is no recognition of what it is, only the relationship ❝ between it (thing/event) and this body, mind, and body (self) is ❞.] (fact)
When I looked back on it later with discernment and human knowledge, it was understood with my head that it was ※↑, so when I spend my time without understanding, there must be a feeling that nothing has been picked up. = not born
That empty (bad) side is that it is a way of being without hardships, likes and dislikes, and definitely right or wrong.
I stop the subjective and active mentality of myself, and if I only look at the factual side, I witness a living sky where reality is empty.
Even what is happening at the cellular level is a separate activity from human thought.
When I see or hear something, the previous one is completely empty.
Breathing, smell, and taste are constantly being burnt out, and nothing is what was just now.
Even when you hit your little toe in the past, the pain was gone and it was Aladdin everywhere.
Please feel the living “sky.”
